Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Vikasnwu, Yes, those kinds of issues are typical for the super-simple website design tools.   Do you want multiple h1 tags? No, you don't.  Will it hurt you in this case, no, it  won't. In the future, when you move to a new platform, you can take care of issues like that, but for now, I wouldn't worry about it.

Martijn - Thanks for your reply.  I tried the code you provided, however it still provided a 404 error.   I was able to get the following to work properly - any drawbacks to doing it this way? RewriteRule ^mono(.*)$ - [NC,R=410,L] The browser now shows the following anytime there is the word "mono" immediately after "sitename.com/" The requested resource /mono.php is no longer available on this server and there is no forwarding address. Please remove all references to this resource. Additionally, a 410 Gone error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

That's not going to solve your problem, vikasnwu. Your immediate issue is that you have URLs in the index that are HTTPS and will cause searchers who click on them not to reach your site due to the security error warnings. The only way to fix that quickly is to get the SSL certificate and redirect to HTTP in place. You've sent the search engines a number of very conflicting signals. Waiting while they try to work out what URLs they're supposed to use and then waiting while they reindex them is likely to cause significant traffic issues and ongoing ranking harm before the SEs figure it out for themselves. The whole point of what I recommended is it doesn't depend on the SEs figuring anything out - you will have provided directives that force them to do what you need. Paul

Hi, I'd recommend using a sitemap index. It allows you to address multiple sitemaps in GSC so you could have one for 'static pages' and another which generates for blog content.

Thank you, that seems to have addressed that issue!

If you want the non-www URLs to be the ones that show up in search, yes, the canonical should be the non-www ones. You are sending mixed messages. Google will pick for you in this case, but why add confusion.
